Flux Factory is pleased to announce the third annual Going Places
(Doing Stuff) artist-led bus tours! Think of it as “adventure as
performance art.” The content of the tours is entirely up to the
artist, and destinations are kept secret. Artists have “carte blanche”
to lead a bus-full of people on an odyssey around the greater New
York/Quad-State area.

Before each tour, we provide only the following information:
artists’ name, title of adventure, duration, and a list of needed
supplies. In other words, when people sign up for a tour, they know
what to bring and how long they’ll be gone, but will have no idea where
they’re going or what they’ll experience. Last year’s adventures
included ziplining to swimming holes, breaking world records, a trip to
an abandoned mental asylum, a demolition derby, and camping in the rain.

Things that may or may not occur:
-Back of the bus juice
-Partial or total immersion in various bodies of water
-Impromptu dance parties
-Mesmerizing encounters with astonishing and unexpected fleeting beauty
that will vanish before you can grasp it, leaving you with
indescribable feelings of Baudelairian melancholy and enlightenment
-Roaring
-Life-affirming encounters with extraordinary individuals and their extraordinary pursuits

The tours will be on board a school bus propelled by vegetable oil provided by the Rude Mechanical Orchestra.

All tours are first-come, first-serve. Tickets go on sale one week before each tour.
They go like hotcakes. We ask that you only sign up for one (to
spread the wealth). All tours are $20, unless otherwise noted. No
phone calls please!

Five exclusive zines will be released at the occasion (geoff
mcfetridge, estelle hanania, sumi ink club, e*rock, david horvitz).
